You don’t have to openly support the party as long as you don’t openly oppose it. China has a lot of grass mud horses (people who aren’t at harmony with the party) and most of them are never sent off for re-education. The central government doesn’t really have that level of surveillance or control, and local governments have even less of that.
Because it's frustrating. They do it to belittle the projects and shame the authors for trying to make a living.

Not every project wants to end up as another bloated abandonware in Apache Software Foundation.
Your argument is a catch 22.
The hyperfocus on shareholder returns is also worth mentioning. It's tangentially related to a monopolistic trajectory. Instead of a company being really good at solving problems in a particular domain they attempt to serve many mediocre solutions in a variety of domains. Shareholders, VCs, and the like encourage this lack of focus on quality and replace it with a focus on margins. The solution for low margins is lower head count and greater diversification of SKUs. For many companies, it's a recipe for enshittification and spirals into mediocrity. Not to mention, when a company enters this phase the lives of employees begin to suffer greatly.
> The average banker anywhere isn't likely a serf, but the average banker is not an average citizen.

A banker is like any other professional. But we can go one step down: Is the average taxi driver more of a "disposable serf" in China than the West?

And consider your use of the word "disposable." If you travel to China and defraud Chinese citizens, they will throw the book at you. If you travel to China and murder a Chinese citizen, they will execute you, and quickly. I've personally been involved in a civil (commercial) legal case in China, and I walked away extremely impressed with the speed, low cost, and the fairness of their legal system, whereas the system in the West seemed almost completely broken to me. (That civil case in China cost less than $10k, start to finish, including trial. In US Federal Court, $300k+ before we even got to trial, thanks in large part to "discovery" and pretrial motions which were -- accurately -- deemed unnecessary in China. Ran out of money before trial and had to settle, lol.) Chinese people enjoy extremely robust legal protections. Their own government evidently doesn't consider them disposable; quite the contrary, it signals that they're not to be trifled with.

If you travel to Finland and murder a Finn, you'll probably get a statistically average sentence of 12 years.

In which country is the innocent life of its citizens more "disposable"? Are China's "disposable serfs" not afforded obviously better protection from evil and harm?

Look, my point is that the Chinese do an awful lot right. In the administration of law, commerce, industry, etc., we should look at them and realize that we in the West have a lot that we can still learn. It's not all bad.

As for Covid, that's a very particular matter and the US/EU/UK/Canada/Australia didn't exactly cover themselves in glory.
That's worth the price tag, environmental impact, and government land repossession that will be required?

>Nonsense. A Spotify Premium or 1080p Netflix subscription costs one hour of work at UK minimum wage. If you're willing to settle for ads you can get Spotify for free, or Netflix for the cost of a single pint of beer. That's incredibly cheap entertainment, if you're not too picky.

The problem is the proliferation of different streaming services. Your friend recommends Slow Horses, which is on Apple TV+. Another recommends The Day of the Jackal, which is on Now TV. You want to watch Premier League football, so you need both Sky Sports and TNT Sports to see all the matches. Before you know it, you're spending £80 a month on subscriptions and you're still missing out on things that are on Disney+ or some American streaming service you've never heard of.

If your mates have all got hookey Fire Sticks and get to watch whatever they want with no ads and no subscription fee, you're going to feel like a complete mug for doing things legally.

I don't see how a bike can be used daily, year-round, for ten years, without falling or being hit by a car driver.

And I would never ride again an alloy or carbon bike that has been involved in a crash with a car.

Yes, internally fxch is a register rename—_and_ fxch can go in the V-pipe and takes only one cycle (Pentium has two pipes, U and V).

IIRC fadd and fmul were both 3/1 (three cycles latency, one cycle throughput), so you'd start an operation, use the free fxch to get something else to the top, and then do two other operations while you were waiting for the operation to finish. That way, you could get long strings of FPU operations at effectively 1 op/cycle if you planned things well.

IIRC, MSVC did a pretty good job of it, too. GCC didn't, really (and thus Pentium GCC was born).

> But literally every device in the real-world just wires the port to the 5V rail with 2 A overcurrent protection

Not quite. To be USB Compliant, you have to do some work here and there. There's about six different options. The most common is overcurrent detection, such as is seen in [1]. There is a whole specification built by USB-IF on how to handle higher current ("battery charge") situations, spurred by apple [2], with all sorts of weird corner cases [3].

Now, USB-C changes that and specifically calls out that a "compliant" downstream device has to negotiate USB PD or declare yourself a USB-2.0 type-C device. [4] It's not uncommon for newer devices that conform strictly to the USB4 specification to not even power a port that hasn't negotiated USB-PD or Legacy PD -- if you encounter devices that get weird when powered via a usb-c to usb-c cable but work fine on a usb a-to-c cable, you've seen someone skimp out on $0.00001 in resistors.

It depends on what you consider "better". ZSH out of the box is not much more than Bash, while Fish has really nice features without any configuration. But I think that the ZSH community is more mature and ZSH is compatible with Bash syntax (while Fish has its own syntax).

Not even wrong, in the Pauli sense.

> allow people to buy and sell bets.

Can't sell - you can buy, or find a counterparty. The exchange part is finding a counterparty.

> placing bets well before the date the event occurs and using them to arbitrage the result as the event nears.

Narrowly correct -- we could, of course, offset our X wins bet at $100 with a Y wins bet for $20. The implication is this is done by selling bets, which as mentioned above, isn't a thing in this world.

Are there some websites where this can be done? yes.

Is it widespread? No.

Is it implied by the phrase betting exchange? No.

The implication with betting exchange is "you're not betting against us, we're not making lines, we're just matching you up with a counterparty, so our incentive structure is aligned with you, we'll build an API even. also fees are much lower, its a pure rake"

> you have to use btc/crypto and risk being ripped off with no legal recourse

Sites that only take crypto do exist, but its certainly not a given or predominant.

> Also presumably there’s a system around what bet to place when. They never talk about that.

This is confusing because:

- you spelled out a system, intuitively, that most people would grok instantly (arbitrage on the line)

- "presumably" is doing 0 work, besides implying there's some hidden secret: any system involved in placing bets would have to provide information on what bet to place. :)

Generally, I don't think it's anyones job to spell out how to pull off consistent net-positive money machine, and it's quite odd to not only want it, but expect it.

Windows has a lot of misfeatures and annoyances but it also Works when it needs to.

I'm a bit lost in all this, except for kind of thinking that it shows X86 is a giant mess.

First, doesn't Windows knows how to use NVME drives as NVME drives, without going through some weird SATA compatibility layer? Second, if I'm reading you right, Windows also has bundled drivers for RST. It's just that the installer doesn't.

Is that right? Are you saying that the Windows installer doesn't know how to use storage interfaces that the final installed Windows system would know how to use, and furthermore that those include storage interfaces that might be used for the boot drive? So in order to install, you have to get an RST driver and somehow load it into the installer, but after that the system will work?

Because that sounds like a Windows problem more than a BIOS problem. You're installing your OS on reasonably vanilla storage[^1]. Why would you expect to have to download a driver from Dell at all?

[^1]: Sort of vanilla. I don't know about this "RST" nonsense and am suspicious of anything that might make it hard to move a drive, or indeed an entire RAID array, to another computer or controller intact.
> Good, a job that cannot support biological needs should not exist.

There was a time in the not so distant past, that close to 100% of those "Minimum Wage" jobs were held by teenagers and youths with close to zero market value as employees, who needed their first few jobs to develop the skills, knowledge, resume and references so they could get an actual job.

Places like McDonalds and Summer Resorts and Amusement parks - were great places for youth to learn these skills. The real distortion is when you started having adults working in McDonalds. It was never a job to support a family - it was a minimum-wage job for kids to get started.
Most Chinese are apolitical and won’t express strong support for or against. I would say they are even less political than Americans since they don’t have much say in it anyways.

I worked at an American tech in Beijing for 9 years, and some of my colleagues would express some nationalism, especially when the South China Sea conflicts started, some of them were always subversive, most didn’t care. Everyone thought the political education courses they were required to take in college were a waste of time.

The reality is that the H1B program is being used not to bring in individuals with 130+ IQ, but essentially anyone with a bachelor's degree, which can be easily obtained from diploma mills. In some third-world countries, you can even buy your degree outright.

For the top 0.1%, there are O1 visas, as well as EB1 and EB2-NIW visas — the latter two don't even require an employer and can be self-sponsored. Plus, they grant you a green card, unlike the H1B, which ties you to an employer.

However, to qualify for these visas, you need to demonstrate that you're genuinely valuable to the U.S. They are designed for top-tier entrepreneurs, engineers, scientists, and artists with a verifiable track record. These visas can also be gamed, but it's much harder than with the H1B program.
This should be the top comment. OP is looking for confirmation bias and got plenty here, but they really need to introspect on how to be a more appealing coworker.

Linking to Jack Posobiec’s tweets and complaining about being called a racist on hacker news, on your linkedin account, just makes you look radioactive. And dumb: linkedin is for hustle porn; 4chan, twitter and their derivatives are for online political warfare. Your inability to distinguish between these shows that you will likely act inappropriately in a professional environment. It shows you don’t know your audience at all, which are the people whose money you want.

And then there’s the age-old question of whether you want to be right, or be liked. It’s not really your responsibility to educate your coworkers on socio-economic-political realities, and they likely don’t come to work to hear others’ opinions about it. But you are shaping an online persona that advertises such a service.

I’ve gone through long stretches of looking for work and fear another in this market environment, so I do sympathize. But you gotta button up. And don’t just shape a better image of a pleasant coworker–actually be one. I’ve worked with too many this-is-your-brain-on-social-media types, of all political persuasions, and it’s miserable.

My previous company had a large estate of linux and mainframe applications. While ensuring that the disaster recovery is implemented in linux applications was a nightmare with different standards and different ways of doing things, in mainframe it was inbuilt.

Not really. You can still get metrics and analytics, you just don't include PII in it. There are tons of privacy-respecting platforms/services (both self-hosted and not) you can use, instead of just slapping Google Analytics on the website and having to show the banner.

But even so, I'd argue that since it's a small business, you'd do much better with qualitative data rather than quantitative, since it's a small business it's hard to make choices based on small amount of data. Instead, conduct user experience studies with real people, and you'll get a ton of valuable data.

Curiosity has led me to check on and off if the local traffic monitoring is missing anything that can be seen externally a few times, but so far I've never observed this happening. Though obviously, captures at different layers can still yield some differences.

Still, if you were extra paranoid, it wouldn't be unreasonable or even difficult to check from an external vantage point.

> Are there any tools that enable capturing traffic from outside the OS you’re monitoring, that still allow for process-level monitoring?

Doing both of these things at once would be hard, though. You can't really trust the per-process tagging because that processing has to be done on the machine itself. I think it isn't entirely implausible (at the very least, you could probably devise a scheme to split the traffic for specific apps into different VLANs. For Linux I would try to do this using netns.)

It is quite a bit worse in practice depending on what you do.

For example, with web browsers, most Linux ones (including Chrome and Firefox) disable much of hardware accelerated graphics on Linux by default because of "unstable graphics drivers". If I remember correctly, Chrome just disables it across the board, while Firefox has a whitelist of drivers considered stable which is basically just Intel.

In my testing, unless you muck around with these settings, you're can easily lose something like an hour of battery life compared to Windows if all you do is just browse websites (and I'm not even talking about anything fancy here; my automated test was literally just scrolling the main Reddit feed).

Definitely an issue. For me, running services privately and often experimenting, it us about having clean uninstslks, and about avoiding mutual interference with common libraries. Both of these would be addressed by static linking.

That said: given the modern tendency to use zillions of libraries, which in turn use zillions more: statically linked programs would tend to be huge.

Yes, there are lots of things that, in the hands of idiots, can be a disaster but I think Nuclear Power is one of the most dangerous. So far we've avoided annihilation via Nuclear Weapons but lately that's become a concern again. It all depends on who is running the show. And that to repeat is my concern over Nuclear Power.

If you want to wait until the 5090s come out, you should see a drop in the price of the 30xx and 40xx series. Right now, shopping used, you can get two 3090s or two 4080s in your price range. Conventional wisdom says two 3090s would be better, but this is all highly dependent on what models you want to run. Basically the first requirement is to have enough VRAM to host all of your model on it, and secondarily, the quality of the GPU.

Have a look through Hugging Face to see which models interest you. A rough estimate for the amount of VRAM you need is half the model size plus a couple gigs. So, if using the 70B models interests you, two 4080s wouldn't fit it, but two 3090s would. If you're just interested in the 1B, 3B and 7B models (llama 3B is fantastic), you really don't need much at all. A single 3060 can handle that, and those are not expensive.
